Power Door Lock Actuator Recommendation
I have installed Audiovox brand door locks on a couple of cars in the past and didn't have problems with the actuator force being able to move the latch mechanism.
But it seems these truck latches are a lot harder to move and the Audiovox won’t cut it. I have seen a recommendation or two on quality actuators but only one, A1 Electric, appeared to have good results. Does anybody else have ACTUAL experience with other actuators? I am using repro latches at the moment. Other than the appearance, the original look like they still might be good. I’m wondering if they might be easier to operate. I also noticed that the stroke on this latch is very short and it appears to be affecting how the actuators operate. I’m using the 5-wire type where each lock knob will operate the other without the need for actual switches. I don’t think the latch is allowing the actuator enough stroke to operate the other. Any advice? Thanks!
